Just seen this on the rage website!
Top SA rapper goes missing!
Top South African hip hop artist, ZUBZ is missing. He was last seen performing at a private party in Kimberly this past weekend. His band members and management claim they last saw him on Saturday night talking to a girl known only as Cyndi after the show. The identity and whereabouts of Cyndi are also unknown.
His record label Outrageous Records, realised something was amiss on Monday after Zubz uncharacteristically missed scheduled interviews and is not available on his mobile number or at home.
Has anyone seen Zubz?
If you have any information regarding this case, please contact his record label, Outrageous Records.
-
Ya i just checked this on twitter half an hour ago and he isn't answering his cell. Some1 tell me this is a hoax.
If it is, its brilliant though. Maximising his exposure off the 'Part Time Lover...' track.
Hope its a publicity stunt.
-
Just saw the message from mtn xploaded on fb...wats happening...is this 4 real...?
Has anyone seen Zubz?
If you have any information regarding this case, please contact his record label:

Hope this is a hoax.
Anything is possible in Kimberley though.

I was thinking the exact same thing.
Damn yo.

Viral marketing... Nice one. Dude is around, they obviously wanted us to do exactly this... TALK!!! Im not saying its a bad thing, but im sure we are all familiar with the story of the boy who cried wolf...
-
lame.

not sure which story i hope to be untrue, Zubz missing or this being a marketing scheme. ptf
-
:o Scary news, hope he is alright ???
-
WOLF!!! WLF!!! WOLF!!
-
His band members and management claim they last saw him on Saturday night talking to a girl known only as Cyndi after the show. The identity and whereabouts of Cyndi are also unknown.
"Remember Psycho Cyndi..." (c) Zubz - Part Time Lover.
-
Verb, u from Kimberley right? Maybe u shud col yo contacts and get him out of there....unless he flew to the US for MJ's funeral...
Psycho Cindy neh...now thats something...did they file a missing person's report with the cops down there, doesn't he hav a car, tracker, something...
Is the band members still in Kimberley, were they not all travelling together (thats if they back in town)...
-
If this is a publicity stunt, it's the lamest publicity stunt in the history of lame publicity stunts. Even tops the Crackboys one. LOL !!! Who ever thought Zubz and the Crackboys, once adversaries, would be pulling publicity stunts both around the same time ? They must share the same publicist.
If this is true though(highly doubt it), then we shall pray for the Golden Mic holder to found.
-
I hope dude is OK. Rappers going missing and turning off their cellphones isn't exactly big news though. Probably just chilling with a girl somewhere. He'll turn up in a week wondering what all the fuss is about.
If it's a publicity stunt, it's pathetic. I'll never listen to any of his music again on principle.
-
If it's a publicity stunt, it's pathetic.
word
-
yep. if its a publicity stunt il boycott both his label and his music :)
thats pretty lame though for real. this stunt is so 1975.
if dude is really missing, im sure someone would have opened a missing persons case or something by now? but for his band to carry on with life as though nothing happened kinda makes me think this is staged
-
his f***ing psycho cindy and she wont let him go..she tied his a** to the bedpost...
-
this is a publicity stunt, and it won't help him sell a extra record, this is SA goddammit
-
if this is a publicity stunt then ProVerb is posting this topic as a plug, right?
just saying.
-
If this is a publicity stunt and Proverb is plugging it for Zubz, the I will stop buying both their music and also lift my ban on people copying their stuff from me.
I always stop people from copying my local music, but I can't support this kind of bullshit.
I don't know that song, so I didn't get the reference.
-
two words... epic fail
-
Lol. Damn leave poor Proverb alone, he says he saw it on the site.
-
I say we call on a boycott of his music if dude is pulling stunts. Lol!!! But on da real, if we being fed bull, that is certainly not stuff to joke around with! Imagine another rapper REALLY goes missing, how will we ever believe again? Coz we will always refer to this cheap gimmick. Boy who cried wolf!!

This might be a bad joke unless Zubz doesn't use Fb and sum1 does it for him...cos "he" was online monday night busy accepting friends... ???

more of a reason to add why i was never a fan of duke. sad state of affairs when cats resort to misguided marketing schemes to get people's attentions...as if just voicing out your concerns and Philanthropic ideals verbally instead of resorting to smoke and mirror tactics has become out dated...

Stop speculating!!! Here's the deal....
Zubs got deported, his papers were allegedly not in order. He's probably at Lindela (deportation center) waiting for the train to take him back, if that hasn't happened already.

I think Munetsi finally got him. He is probably chained up in a basement as his sex slave. And after he busts a nut in Zubs, he battles him and goes to sleep.

Just saw this on RAGE. Publicity stunt disguised as a good cause!! >:( >:( Maaan pleeeeaaase
ZUBZ FOUND
Zubz “Missing” For a Good Cause
As you have probably figured by now, Zubz is not missing. Those familiar with the Zubz hit song Part Time Lover Full Time Freek picked up that Cyndi is one of the characters in the song. While others saw right through the gimmick and thought it was a brilliant campaign to market something they couldn’t wait to hear about when the truth would be revealed, others found it in bad taste.
The truth is that Zubz has done a remix of Part Time Lover: Full Time Freek, in which he’s been “man-napped” by Psycho Cyndi! She tied him up for 24 hours in dark and dingy room. The campaign has been done to raise awareness for missing children, the role social networking sites can play and highlight the fact that the missing children do not get the much needed media attention.
Yes we wanted to create real publicity around the remix and the cause that has emerged as a pertinent charity to support! Had we sent out a chain e-mailer about the plight of missing children, we doubt we would have had the response we did when a “celebrity” missed a couple of interviews and rehearsals.
Zubz and Outrageous Records are going to donate proceeds from the Psycho Cyndi Remix to Missing Children South Africa. This part is much more about the plight to help people than Zubz’s publicity. He’s a maverick, a fire-starter and a leader – nobody should expect less from him.
So there it is – the truth behind the “Has Anybody Seen Zubz Campaign?” Thank you to those who called and pa**ed the message on – we appreciate your support of Zubz.
Thank you to those who also wrote to or called us to tell us how unimpressed they were, your feelings and opinions did not fall on deaf ears.
